Crvena zvezda has never beaten AC Milan in a European match (including qualifying) having two draws and two defeats in four previous matches. The last meeting between Stella Rossa and Milan was in August 2006 in the Champions League qualifiers; victory is for the Rossoneri 2-1, with Filippo Inzaghi and Clarence Seedorf in Belgrade. The Red Star have not won in six games against an Italian opponent in European competitions (2N, 4P): the Serbs’ latest success dates back to the match against Roma in December 2005 in the UEFA Cup. AC Milan have won their last two Europa League matches: excluding qualifiers, the Rossoneri have not had a streak of at least three wins in European competitions since November 2008 (four in that case).
